Dear participants,

On behalf of the Postgraduate Students Commission (ipSC) from the Research Institute for Medicines (iMed.ULisboa), we are pleased to invite you to the 11th iMed.ULisboa Postgraduate Students Meeting and 4th i3DU Meeting, which takes place in the Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Lisboa, on July 15th 2019.

As an interdisciplinary institute, iMed.ULisboa is responsible for the continuous scientific research in several areas of knowledge that share a final link with the current public health and medicinal needs. This Meeting aims towards the possibility of students and researchers sharing their work and exchange ideas among the different areas of expertise.

This year, the programme will consist of two keynotes lectures, focusing on the interdisciplinarity and the cross-link between different scientific areas. Remaining lectures will be given by PhD Students from different groups presenting their work.

Poster sessions will allow all participants to share and discuss their work and network with the iMed.ULisboa community.

The Meeting will be concluded with a round table focusing around the topic of - ‘The importance of interdisciplinarity: working in between scientific fields.’ - in which renowned investigators from iMed.ULisboa will share their experience and point of view in an environment that promotes the discussion with the participants.

We welcome you all to join us at this event.
